Share Your Story with Mr. Kneel

June 7, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm

Hiphop performer Mr. Kneel

Celebrate Summer Reading! Our summer theme is E Heluhelu Kākou; Moʻolelo, and Hawaii’s public libraries will be celebrating the rich and varied stories that shape our communities.


Mr. Kneel shares his love of reading with beatbox and rhymes. Using some of his favorite authors as inspiration, Mr. Kneel asks kids to create their own Amazing Story, with an art project follow-up.

A former inner-city teacher, Mr. Kneel now teaches with Hip Hop music, beat-boxing, and interactive games. He has engaged with thousands of students at over 500 schools throughout the United States.

Sponsored by the Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i. This is a production of the University of Hawaii at Manoa Outreach College’s Statewide Cultural Extension Program with additional funding provided by the National Endowment for the Arts, Hawaii State Foundation on Culture and the Arts, and the University of Hawaii.


Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required. Program schedule is subject to change.
